Client Matchmine was featured on GigaOM recently. Very interesting recommendation engine that avoids the majority of privacy issues that have ben raised to date in regards to other recommendation systems. Of interest to readers of my other blog, matchmine can also match you to other people, by computing the similarity of your respective MatchKeys.
Great and very funny video about impending Web 2.0 Internet bubble. Instant classic.

After a year of discussions, ACAP — Automated Content Access Protocol — was released as a sort of robots.txt 2.0 system for telling search engines what they can or can’t include in their listings. However, none of the major search engines support ACAP, and its future remains firmly one of “watch and see.” Below, more about the how and why of ACAP.

If you follow the reputation space in any way, this is going to be an excellent event.
The Information Society Project at Yale Law School is proud to present Reputation Economies in Cyberspace. The symposium will be held on December 8, 2007 at Yale Law School in New Haven, CT.
This event will bring together representatives from industry, government, and academia to explore themes in online reputation, community-mediated information production, and their implications for democracy and innovation. The symposium is made possible by the generous support of the Microsoft Corporation.
I hope they record the event as I won’t be able to attend.
